This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

- Comment: notability cannot be inherited, what makes this person notable in his own right? Theroadislong (talk) 09:29, 15 November 2023 (UTC)
John Robert Livingston (February 13, 1755 – 1851) was an American merchant and military officer, and a member of the prominent Livingston family of the state of New York. He was the third son of Judge Robert Livingston, a younger brother of Robert R. Livingston, who helped draft the Declaration of Independence, and an older brother of Secretary of State Edward Livingston.
The last surviving member of his generation of the Livingston family, John R. Livingston was photographed by Mathew Brady in 1844.[1]
Livingston died at his home in Red Hook, New York in 1851.
